The Bohemian Pool House is a great place to stay in Bangkok - close enough to the river and sky train ( 40/50 baht taxi) but well away from tourists !
The apartment is a good space and with a balcony and terrace- plus a great pool
Piya is a brilliant communicator and her advice really helpful
NB You do need to print the directions for taxi drivers and I suggest getting taxi directly from airport or bus station
If you arrive early there is a secure space to leave your luggage
Highly recommended
